Chapter 71: Escape

Seeing that her first move had failed to scare off her opponent, Sarana immediately unfurled a golden net, attempting to intercept Feng.

However, her movements were clearly a bit slow; by the time Feng Buer caught up, he had already thrown a Magical Item.

That Magical Item was a very common one for the Wealth Church: a golden cloth bag.

If one were to accidentally walk into it, they would be swallowed up and captured.

Because it was made of gold, most people would accidentally enter the trap.

After all, this thing was much larger than its displayed range.

However, Sarana also had combat experience; she stepped directly onto the wall and leaped backward. The physical fitness of an Awakened is very high, and some Awakened who excel in physical fitness can even manage to fly through the air for a period of time.

After hanging in the air, Sarana threw two smoke bombs; this did not belong to the fighting style of the Golden Church, but it was very effective.

In a narrow space, one does not need to exert much effort to escape.

Feng Buer clearly did not catch up to this lady; her movements were too fast, and she was also wearing a maid's outfit, making it easy to blend in among the subordinates of the Governor's Mansion and escape.

And the Wealth Church clearly could not exercise the right to conduct inspections at will within the Governor's Mansion.

Jumping over the courtyard wall, Sarana immediately chose a new outfit from the alchemy items on her person and threw it on.

Tana City might be lacking in other things, but the area of the Governor's Mansion was much larger than all the various manors in the Royal Capital; this was also a characteristic of the distant suburbs.

Sarana ran for about twenty minutes before she finally managed to get out.

It was too imprudent to have let the people from the Wealth Church recognize her; she had thought those people wouldn't capture her so aggressively.

No, it could also be that her own reaction was too intense.

She walked out of the alley with dissatisfaction, summarizing the lessons of her failure in her heart.

It was also that she hadn't chosen the right time today; she should have gone to the Government Building first, as there would certainly be no one there at this time!

"Apologies, I did not capture that Awakened, but please rest assured, the Wealth Church will capture the fugitive as soon as possible," Feng Buer said sincerely to Governor Jones. "It is fortunate that she was discovered in time, otherwise I truly do not know what she might have done to you."

At this time, it had already been verified within the Governor's Mansion that there was no such maid at all.

He hadn't expected that only a few days after moving into the Governor's Mansion, this residence would need to be repaired again. Governor Jones waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, it is fortunate that you discovered it early, but how did you discover it?"

"It was mainly because I found her behavior suspicious. You might not have noticed, but although she was wearing a maid's outfit, the shoes on her feet were high-end goods." Feng certainly would not reveal Sarana's true identity, otherwise, Governor Jones would start to suspect him.

"No wonder," Governor Jones said, frowning. "It seems that we still need to patrol more in the future. We must increase manpower in the Rich District. I don't know if the guards here..."

"You can rest assured, the Guard Team has added quite a bit of combat power. Those Xiahui People are stronger than many veteran soldiers. If you need it, I can arrange for them to be specifically responsible for patrolling the vicinity," Captain Liande patted his chest. "You must trust us; as long as they report the news in time, I can arrive at any moment to solve the problem for you."

It seemed that the Wealth Church had apparently lost something again.

The banquet ended somewhat abruptly; it was said to be because something had happened, but Yezi had already made an appointment to go to the Shooting Club with Miss Philip, and having finally completed the task, she went home and logged off, feeling satisfied.

On the forum, everyone was discussing the fleeing Sarana.

Feng Buxi: It's a real pity, but little Bu'er still gave fifty Silver Tana. According to the agreement, I will give Zhuguli forty.

Zhuguli: We seem to have seen her later, but she had changed into a different outfit and said she was heading toward the City Center. I don't know where she went.

Feng Buxi to Zhuguli: Then why didn't you say so earlier? Someone go online and report it...

What exactly is going on with Sarana?

Yezi asked, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Feng Buxi: She is someone wanted by the Golden Church. It is said she is the child of some high-ranking official or noble family. We cannot hurt her, but we must find her. Her name is Sarana Brown. If any of you see her, remember to find us; we can collect the money.

Ai Ai Who Draws: Is this the person you were talking about earlier, asking me to draw a portrait, and then later discovering that the Wealth Church could develop photos?

Feng Buxi to Ai Ai Who Draws: It is said that they were urgently transferred from the Royal Capital. The Gold Ties of the Golden Church there have one for each person; it is much more convenient than your hand-drawn ones.

Luolita: It seems that counting on making a fortune by making cameras is impossible. I also don't know what other scientific technology is missing that I could copy in advance.

Sarana circled around the Government Building, but in the end, she was unable to find the seal for the documents.

It seems this thing is indeed carried by the Governor at all times. It makes sense; if this kind of thing were handed to someone else and something were to happen, it would cause a huge impact. It's just that I don't know how to create another identity again.

After exiting the door, she lowered the hat on her head and slipped into the nearby Theater in a flash.

The night performances at the Edmond Theater were basically all about the Sun God.

However, it was precisely because it was about the Sun God that the number of people watching was not high.

Seeing a lady sitting in a seat, those watching the play were all a bit surprised. Most women would not like the Sun God, who symbolizes celibacy, so having such a viewer was truly too rare.

Even Sarana herself felt it was absurd; she hadn't expected that there would be this kind of play so close to the Government Building.

However, thinking that it was night, she felt much more relieved.

"Excuse me, night inspection." The Gold Tie Bulu barged in directly. The brightness in the Theater was restored instantly, and the actors on stage also stopped.

He scanned the Theater and caught sight of the distinct Sarana at a glance.

Seeing the Gold Tie, Sarana cursed; it was the first time she had seen a Gold Tie with such strong operational capability.

She directly touched the chair beside her, and all the chairs turned into golden, circular fine sand.

Bulu, who was walking halfway, suddenly tripped and fell, giving Sarana more opportunities to escape.

"Chase her! Don't let her run! The Golden Church will give you a reward!" Bulu shouted, struggling to stand up from the ground, saying this to the Sun God Cult believers who were watching.

And the people watching around, far from stopping Sarana, were instead picking up gold on the ground.

This was all ready-made; why bother chasing someone?

No matter how rich the reward given by the Golden Church was, could it compare to this gold?

Bulu cursed, "Damn it, these idiots! This gold will eventually turn back; it's not real!"

But no one listened to him; everyone was still gathered together.

Only Sarana, who had run away first, slipped away.
